1 And at that time there was raised a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all dispersed through the countries of Judea, and Samaria, except the apostles.
1 Saul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.
2 And devout men took order for Stephen’s funeral, and made great mourning over him.
2 Devout men buried Stephen and lamented greatly over him.
3 But Saul made havock of the church, entering in from house to house, and dragging away men and women, committed them to prison.
3 But Saul ravaged the assembly, entering into every house and dragged both men and women off to prison.
4 They therefore that were dispersed, went about preaching the word of God.
4 Therefore those who were scattered abroad went around preaching the word.
5 And Philip going down to the city of Samaria, preached Christ unto them.
5 Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ.
6 And the people with one accord were attentive to those things which were said by Philip, hearing, and seeing the miracles which he did.
6 The multitudes listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip when they heard and saw the signs which he did.
7 For many of them who had unclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, went out.
7 For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.
8 And many, taken with the palsy, and that were lame, were healed.
8 There was great joy in that city.
9 There was therefore great joy in that city. Now there was a certain man named Simon, who before had been a magician in that city, seducing the people of Samaria, giving out that he was some great one:
9 But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who used to practice sorcery in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,
10 To whom they all gave ear, from the least to the greatest, saying: This man is the power of God, which is called great.
10 to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is that great power of God.”
11 And they were attentive to him, because, for a long time, he had bewitched them with his magical practices.
11 They listened to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
12 But when they had believed Philip preaching of the kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
12 But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning God’s Kingdom and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13 Then Simon himself believed also; and being baptized, he adhered to Philip. And being astonished, wondered to see the signs and exceeding great miracles which were done.
13 Simon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.
14 Now when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John.
14 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
15 Who, when they were come, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost.
15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;
16 For he was not as yet come upon any of them; but they were only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
16 for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of Christ Jesus.
17 Then they laid their hands upon them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 And when Simon saw, that by the imposition of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
18 Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money,
19 Saying: Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I shall lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said to him:
19 saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 Keep thy money to thyself, to perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
20 But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!
21 Thou hast no part nor lot in this matter. For thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
21 You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart isn’t right before God.
22 Do penance therefore for this thy wickedness; and pray to God, that perhaps this thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.
22 Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.
23 For I see thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bonds of iniquity.
23 For I see that you are in the poison of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity.”
24 Then Simon answering, said: Pray you for me to the Lord, that none of these things which you have spoken may come upon me.
24 Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that none of the things which you have spoken happen to me.”
25 And they indeed having testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel to many countries of the Samaritans.
25 They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans.
26 Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem into Gaza: this is desert.
26 Then an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, “Arise, and go toward the south to the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert.”
27 And rising up, he went. And behold a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch, of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge over all her treasures, had come to Jerusalem to adore.
27 He arose and went; and behold, there was a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship.
28 And he was returning, sitting in this chariot, and reading Isaias the prophet.
28 He was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip: Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
29 The Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.”
30 And Philip running thither, heard him reading the prophet Isaias. And he said: Thinkest thou that thou understandest what thou readest?
30 Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
31 Who said: And how can I, unless some man shew me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
31 He said, “How can I, unless someone explains it to me?” He begged Philip to come up and sit with him.
32 And the place of the scripture which he was reading was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb without voice before his shearer, so openeth he not his mouth.
32 Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter. As a lamb before his shearer is silent, so he doesn’t open his mouth.
33 In humility his judgment was taken away. His generation who shall declare, for his life shall be taken from the earth?
33 In his humiliation, his judgment was taken away. Who will declare His generation? For his life is taken from the earth.”
34 And the eunuch answering Philip, said: I beseech thee, of whom doth the prophet speak this? of himself, or of some other man?
34 The eunuch answered Philip, “Who is the prophet talking about? About himself, or about someone else?”
35 Then Philip, opening his mouth, and beginning at this scripture, preached unto him Jesus.
35 Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached to him about Jesus.
36◆ And as they went on their way, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch said: See, here is water: what doth hinder me from being baptized?
36 As they went on the way, they came to some water; and the eunuch said, “Behold, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptized?”
37◆ And Philip said: If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answering, said: I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

¿Por qué mi Biblia dice algo distinto?
- Hechos 8:37: la confesión de fe del eunuco
En algunas Biblias, antes de bautizar al etíope, Felipe le dice: «Si crees de todo corazón, bien puedes», y el eunuco responde: «Creo que Jesucristo es el Hijo de Dios». Este versículo falta en los manuscritos griegos más antiguos y en la mayoría de los bizantinos, pero san Ireneo ya lo conocía en el siglo II. Parece ser una antigua confesión bautismal añadida al relato.
Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
It seems to me, this (Philip) was one of the seven; for from Jerusalem he would not have gone southwards, but to the north; but from Samaria it was "towards the south. The same is desert:" so that there is no fear of an attack from the Jews. And he did not ask, Wherefore? but "arose and went.

And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had driven them mad by his sorceries." This Simon, then--who feigned faith, supposing that the apostles themselves performed their cures by the art of magic, and not by the power of God; and with respect to their filling with the Holy Ghost, through the imposition of hands, those …
… when we hear, "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;" we do not of course understand it of one who believes in such a way "as the devils believe and tremble;" nor of those who receive baptism in such sort as Simon Magus, who though he could be baptized, could not be saved.

The inventor of all heresy was Simon Magus: that Simon, who in the Acts of the Apostles thought to purchase with money the unsaleable grace of the Spirit, and heard the words, Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter, and the rest: concerning whom also it is written, They went out from us, but they were not …
